I don't know if anyone reads my blog, but hey I'm back! Grade 12 is harder than I thought. A lot harder, in fact. I think it's because of English. For the past month, I have been stressing over essay's and tests and presentations. I haven't had enough sleep since the second week of school. Today is a Saturday and why am I up so early, you ask? Well, my driver instructor booked my lesson for 8am on Saturday. What can I really say, though. I might as well just go along with it since it's only an hour anyway. Then I can come home and go back to sleep I suppose.
Well, I just called my instructor (because it is 8:10 and he's still not here) and he told me he forgot to book my lesson for today and asked if it's okay to drive later this evening, tomorrow or Monday? Well, I just woke up for nothing! Anyway, I don't have time to wait around for him for this evening because I have to go to my cousin's little party being held at playdium. I haven't been there for a while, so I guess I'm a little excited. (= Then I have to come back home and continue working on my ISU for English.So before going back to all that work and stress, I can relax and enjoy some time with my beloved cousins.
Funny thing, my instructor called me an hour ago to say he has a spot and if I still wanted to go for my lesson. So I said "Sure why not," since I'm awake anyways. I didn't realize that your legs could be so tired from driving. How do people drive such long distances for such a long time? =/ (Beats me!) Anyway, I should get started on my homework before the party!
But before I leave, I just want to share with everyone that I will be auditioning for the SM auditions as the next global star! I am very excited and I hope ill make it! =]
my randomness. ... :)

The first week of school is over, and I have already received a months worth of homework! This is ridiculous! If the first week consists of so much work, what do I expect for the rest of the year? Can I make it through the year? Let's hope so.
I have three classes this semester. In two of my classes, I have somebody who I can sit with and talk to that will make the class more fun. However, for my last class, I am alone. I don't mind not knowing anybody in one of my classes because I can actually concentrate more on my work. The only thing is, this class is boring and there's no one around to make it fun.This year, I have to really concentrate and do well on all my work and assignments. I have to try extra hard on my essays and projects. My goal is to achieve a minimum of 80% in each of my classes. I want my overall average to be above 80%!!! In order to achieve good marks, I have to really concentrate and understand the work that I'm given. I must put effort into all my work and do it to the best of my ability. I just hope nothing gets in the way to distract my concentration, focus and determination!
With all the homework that I am expected to have done for the due date, I don't think I can really go on the computer anymore, especially continue with my blogs. My goal was to create 1 post a day, describing that days events. Now, I can only create 1 OR 2 post(s) a week. I guess it's better than none at all!
Driving school itself is boring though. You sit in a classroom for 7 hours watching videos about driving, the laws and rules that I don't even remember anymore. That went on for FOUR days! The driving lessons, and actually driving is a lot better than watching and listening and learning about doing it.

Any married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering the same thing.
AND FINALLY...
A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, jack asses, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"
"Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."

Women act differently from men. We act smartly and do things only after having to have thought over it, while men do things to save "face" and and act cool around their friends. For example, if a group of women were to go out and eat, they would pay separate bills and wait for their change. As for men, if their meal was $22 each person, each man would take out 2 twenty dollar bills because they don't have anything smaller and won't admit they want change back.
One thing's for sure. No women likes a man who acts differently in front of them when they're alone and when they're with their friends. (Remember that boys!)

Were you ever scared of a seagull? Have you ever tried running away from one? Have you ever put on your hood because there were seagulls flying above you and you didn't want it to shit on your head? I'm sure most of us have probably experienced that. This is a rather embarrassing situation. I was walking by the park earlier and heard seagulls flying around. This caused me to remember something that had happened to my friend and I a couple of months ago.
Well, here's my story.I was walking back to school after purchasing my meal at Pizza Nova with my friend, Cory. We were eating our last slice of pizza and, since there were no garbage cans around, he decided to throw our tissue and paper bag on the ground. I'm assuming the seagulls had seen us "litter" and started flying above around us. They started making "AWWWKK"ing noises and flew closer. We got scared so we began to run. They, for some odd reason, decided to chase us (literally). We ran across the football field, when Cory decided to throw his pizza. Some of the seagulls stayed behind and fought for his slice, while others continued to chase us. I was hungry, so I held on to my slice ( I only got to take TWO bites). As we slowed down, thinking that we were safe, *PLOP* the seagull attacked. Of all people, it landed on who? Why, of course, ME.So, I had seagull poop in my hair. As soon as Cory realized this, he started laughing and couldn't stop. I was pretty pissed off so as we were walking back to our school I was complaining the WHOLE way. This made Cory laugh even harder. (Thanks again Cory for your sympathy. NOT!) I kept complaining all the way back to my school and until I got to the bathroom, where I immediately washed my hair in the sink. Girls came in and stared at me wierdly, but I could've cared less because I had poop in my hair. Well, that's my SEAGULL story, and the moral is to NEVER litter, Right? By the way, isn't that a sign of good luck for the chinese, 中"頭"獎? =/ I should've bought a lottery ticket.
This could be considered a good and bad memory. The bad part of it is pretty obvious, so no explanation needed there. As for the good part, I got to spend time with my friends and we had a great time before this tragedy happened. That day was also the day I got my cartilage peirced with my friends. =) What a day to remember!
Hello everyone (those who are reading my blog)! As you can probably tell, "I" am a newbie. I have never blogged before and I'm not sure what I'm even supposed to do with my blog. I'm just pretty much using this as a way to express myself; a place where I can be me.
School is starting soon!!! I'm going into my last year of high school. I'm still trying to decide on what I want to do after graduation. I want to go to university for sure. The problem is, I don't know what for. My plan is to go to university and get a diploma for something and then go to acting school and pursue my acting career. If all goes well, I can continue with my acting (something I love to do), but (knock on wood) if anything goes wrong, or I just don't seem to be getting anywhere with it, I'll always have back up. So, basically I have one main thing to decide: what I want to go to university for.
It's not as easy as it sounds. I want to do something that I love and can stick with for the rest of my life. I dont want to regret having to have chosen the wrong path that creates a detour before leading me to my future.
